Free Hot Water Upgrade for Small Businesses

Last updated on December 12, 2023

Installing a hot water system for your business for FREE…..

Small businesses in Australia can significantly benefit from upgrading their hot water systems to energy-efficient heat pump technology. Hot water makes up a significant portion of commercial energy bills, with old units consuming a lot of electricity.

Replacing these outdated units with new energy-efficient heat pumps can drastically reduce electricity costs while providing hot water reliably.

Heat pumps use electricity to move heat from one place to another instead of generating heat directly. They absorb heat from outdoor air or groundwater and concentrate it to provide hot water for businesses.

Heat pumps are around three times more efficient than electric hot water units and gas storage heaters.

Replacing outdated storage hot water heaters with heat pump technology might seem like an overreach for small businesses, but the outcome and benefits make it more than just an investment.

Benefits of Upgrading to Heat Pumps for Australian Businesses

➜ Reduced Electricity Costs

Heat pumps are 2-3 times more energy efficient than electric or gas hot water heaters. Since hot water accounts for up to 30% of commercial energy bills, switching to a heat pump system can provide substantial cost savings over time.

Heat pumps use electricity to move heat rather than generate heat directly, so they use less energy to produce the same amount of hot water. For small businesses, this can translate into savings in thousands of dollars per year on electricity bills.

➜ Reliable Hot Water Supply

Heat pumps continuously provide a constant supply of hot water on demand. Unlike traditional storage water heaters that only heat water when turned on, heat pumps circulate refrigerant through an evaporator coil 24/7 to absorb and concentrate heat.

That means they can instantly provide hot water anytime, eliminating hot water outages that can impact business operations. The units are also designed for commercial use and can reliably produce hot water for many hours daily.

➜ Clean, Green Technology

Heat pumps transfer renewable heat energy from the outdoor air or ground rather than generating it through the combustion of fossil fuels like gas. They have no emissions and are one of the most environmentally friendly options for commercial hot water.

For small businesses seeking more sustainable solutions, switching to a heat pump system can significantly reduce their carbon footprint and environmental impact.

➜ Simple Installation and Operation

For most small businesses, heat pump hot water units have a relatively simple installation process. In many cases, a heat pump can be installed in place of an existing electric or gas storage hot water heater with minimal changes to the pipework.

Once installed, the units typically require little maintenance and operate automatically once programmed for the business’s hot water needs.

➜ Better Water Temperature Control

Heat pumps control hot water temperatures more precisely than traditional storage hot water heaters. This is important for small businesses like cafes, restaurants, and laundromats that require consistent hot water temperatures for operations. Accurate temperature control also helps reduce the risk of scalding injuries.

➜ Longer Lifespan

Heat pump hot water systems have a longer service life than traditional electric or gas storage hot water heaters. Since they do not involve burning fuels, heat pumps have no flame or heating elements that can degrade over time.

As a result, heat pump units typically last 15-20 years with proper maintenance, while storage hot water heaters often need replacing after 10-12 years. The extended lifespan means heat pumps require less frequent replacements and disruptions for small businesses.

➜ Lower Maintenance Needs

Heat pump hot water systems require less ongoing maintenance than traditional storage hot water heaters. They have no flame or heating elements to clean or replace.

The sealed refrigerant system is also self-contained, so no additional maintenance of components like flame sensors or gas valves is needed. This translates into lower maintenance costs for small businesses over the unit’s lifespan.

Routine annual check-ups and filter cleanings are often sufficient to keep heat pump units operating efficiently.

➜ Improved Hot Water Availability

Heat pumps can provide an unlimited hot water supply on demand for small businesses. Unlike storage hot water heaters with a fixed capacity, heat pumps produce hot water directly as needed.

This ensures the constant availability of hot water for businesses with fluctuating or high hot water demands throughout the day.

This unlimited hot water supply prevents interruptions to business operations due to inadequate hot water, providing a more reliable solution for commercial applications.

➜ Reduced Component Replacement

Heat pump hot water systems have fewer wearable parts that require frequent replacements. Since they do not involve combustion, heat pumps have no burners, ignitors, or heating elements to replace.

The compressor and fan motor – the main replaceable parts – typically last the unit’s lifespan with proper maintenance. For small businesses, this means lower long-term costs as fewer component replacements are needed over time.

➜ Quieter Operation

Heat pump hot water units operate more quietly than traditional storage water heaters. Since they do not involve the continuous burning of fuels, heat pumps produce less noise during operation. The sound from the compressor and fan motor is also muffled due to the unit’s sealed casing.

For many small businesses, the quieter operation of heat pumps can be less disruptive and create a more peaceful environment.

➜ Flexible Installation Options

Heat pump hot water systems offer flexible installation options that accommodate the space constraints of many small businesses. Indoor and outdoor units are available to suit various footprints.

Split systems separate the refrigerant circuit and hot water storage, which allows the flexibility to locate components where space allows.

Integrated systems combine the heat pump and storage tank in a compact unit. For small businesses with limited space for equipment, these versatile installation features ensure a heat pump hot water system can be accommodated more easily.
